Immortal of the Nine Realms

”Could it be? Is this really the legendary mid-grade spirit stone?”

”It is rumored that the benefits a mid-grade spirit stone can bring to one’s cultivation far exceed what a low-grade spirit stone can. It can even help in breaking past bottlenecks!”

”Even in fourth-tier empires, mid-grade spirit stones are extremely rare!”

”Only certain powerful experts in third-tier empires would use mid-grade spirit stones for their cultivation....”

”If this is really a mid-grade spirit stone, then it’s priceless!”

”I never expected that this junk Immortal Origin Stone could have such a treasure inside. What a loss! I almost bought it once!”

The crowd was both shocked and regretful. Some people had already begun sneaking off to the Fortune Pavilion.

Even the servants of the Fortune Pavilion came to witness the commotion.

When they saw that the Immortal Origin Sold that they had kept for many years had produced such a treasure, their expressions turned odd.

In the crowd, someone quietly took out a transmission talisman.

Manager Yu bit his lip and whispered, ”Young man, how about this? I’ll buy this spirit stone from you for 1,500 low-grade spirit stones!

”You used up your chance earlier. I won’t be selling it to you,” replied Fang Chen lightly before he continued to scrap away the surface of the Immortal Origin Stone in his hand.

Manager Yu’s face turned slightly pale. He was really regretting what he just did. He would’ve outright offered a high price from the beginning if he knew it would be like this. The mid-grade spirit stone could’ve been his!

Lin Yu and others were stunned, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Suddenly, a thought suddenly struck someone, causing their expression to turn strange. ”If that’s really a mid-grade spirit stone, then Brother Lin’s legs....”

Fang Hao’s eyes blanked out. ”This guy is way too lucky, right?!”

This was Fang Chen’s first time ever visiting the Immortal Origin District and yet he managed to buy a Stone for one low-grade spirit that had yielded him a mid-grade spirit stone!

What kind of unbelievable luck was this?!

Finally, after some time, the Immortal Origin Stone was completely opened, and out came a fist-sized, mid-grade spirit stone.

Rich spiritual energy began to spread into the air. Fang Chen softly enveloped the escaping spiritual energy with his own spiritual energy to prevent it from leaking.

”Give me that,” a voice rang out.

Everyone looked up, only to that a woman had appeared in the crowd. The woman’s eyes were cold.

Fang Jue and others were shocked. ”Fang Lingxing?”

When Lin Yu heard Fang Lingxing, he turned uneasy.

”She’s here too?” mumbled Wu Ruochou, frowning. Glancing at Lin Yu, Wu Ruochou suddenly understood everything, and it caused her face to darken.

Xia Ji looked at Fang Lingxing indifferently, but Fang Chen knew that Xia Ji’s heart was full of murderous intent toward this woman.

”Name your price,” said Fang Chen lightly.

”Two thousand low-grade spirit stones,” said Fang Lingxing.

Lin Yu’s face turned pale, and he suddenly swayed from fear. ”Young Lady Fang, I—”

Fang Lingxing shot him a disdainful look, which caused Lin Yu to cower back into silence.

Lin Yu understood that his legs were definitely going to be broken today, and if he dared to say anything else, it might not just be his legs that would be broken...

Thinking of this, Lin Yu’s face turned extremely pale, and regret filled his heart.

He wouldn’t have gotten himself involved in any of this if he knew that it was going to turn out like this. Now, instead of gaining favor, he might end up losing both legs. He would need to spend half a month in bed at the very least....

”Nonsense. That’s too low.” Fang Chen shook his head. ”I won’t sell it for that price.”

”Fang Jue, you persuade him. This price is already very reasonable. Even if it’s more expensive, he won’t be able to sell it,” said Fang Lingxing lightly to Fang Jue.

Fang Jue revealed a strange look. He glanced at Fang Chen, then at Fang Lingxing, and finally shook his head. ”It’s Fang Chen’s treasure. How much he wants to sell it for is his business. I won’t interfere.”

Fang Lingxing frowned slightly.

At this moment, the young man beside her cleared his throat and smiled at Fang Chen. ”Friend, sell it to me. I’ll offer three thousand low-grade spirit stones.”

”Gasp...”

Three thousand low-grade spirit stones!?

Everyone gasped in shock, their eyes burning with jealousy.

Three thousand low-grade spirit stones could completely alter the fate of a cultivator.

Even those with mediocre talent could use it to reach the 12th stage of the Qi Refining Realm, and even have the possibility of breaking into the Foundation Building Realm!

Suddenly, a figure rushed over and landed in front of everyone. ”What do you youngsters need a mid-grade spirit stone for?”

When Fang Lingxing and the others saw who the person who just arrived was, they revealed faces full of shock.

”We pay respects to Senior Jue!”

The newcomer was dressed in a green robe. He had a hooked nose, a dark gaze, and a mysterious aura that gave the impression of profound depth.

He was the Golden Core Realm expert of the Jue family!

”The Jue Family’s Golden Core Realm expert has come!” exclaimed one of the people who had recognized the man.

What!? Golden Core Realm!?

All the cultivators in the Immortal Origin District revealed looks of shock and hurriedly paid their respects.

The Golden Core Realm expert from the Jue Family smiled, his gaze falling on the mid-grade spirit stone in Fang Chen’s hand. There was a hint of greed in his eyes as he muttered, ”Good stuff, this mid-grade spirit stone is rich in spiritual energy. I reckon it’s well worth five thousand low-grade spirit stones. Sell it to me.”

Five thousand....

Everyone felt their mouths dry. This was an unimaginable amount to them. What a huge sum that was!

”Five thousand? Are you trying to scam the child?”

Another figure had appeared. He had white hair and a beard, and he carried a wine gourd around his waist. His breath reeked with the smell of alcohol.

Fang Lingxing and the others were startled again, and they quickly bowed and saluted, showing great deference. ”Elder!”

This was their Fang Family’s Golden Core Realm cultivator!

The Golden Core Realm expert from the Fang Family chuckled. ”You’re here too? Don’t lose yourself when playing with treasures. Don’t get addicted to buying Immortal Origin Stones!”

The Golden Core Realm expert from the Jue Family squinted slightly. ”What do you mean? Are you saying my offer is bad?”

The Golden Core Realm expert from the Fang Family laughed heartily and said, ”Don’t act stupid. This is a chunk of mid-grade spirit stone, if cut according to the standard specifications of a spirit stone, it can be split into fifty pieces! Fifty mid-grade spirit stones, and you’re offering five thousand? Stop pretending, my Fang Family is setting the price at ten thousand!”

The Golden Core Realm expert from the Jue Family’s expression changed continuously.

Ten thousand low-grade spirit stones?!

Everyone was shocked into numbness, and they stared at Fang Chen with faces full of envy and jealousy.

Many were fantasizing about what it would be like if the Immortal Origin Stone had been theirs. Even the manager of the Fortune Pavilion ran over to take a look. He was nearly breathless when he heard the price. They had actually left such a priceless Immortal Origin lying around in their hall for several years!

Fang Chen’s heart was stirred a little. Ten thousand low-grade spirit stones....

He never expected the price to be so high.

He’d be able to buy a peak-grade, yellow-rank treasure with these ten thousand low-grade spirit stones!

The foundations of the Great Qian’s Fang Family were incredibly strong!

Before everyone could recover from their shock, several intimidating figures rushed over. However, when these figures heard the price offered by the Fang Family’s ancestor, they stopped right in their tracks, hesitating. In the end, they chose to observe from a distance.

”Fang Chen, this is our family’s ancestor! Selling the mid-grade spirit stone chunk to him is absolutely the right choice!”

Fang Jue, who had been unwilling to try and persuade Fang Chen earlier, was now urging him to sell it to the ancestor. His eyes were signaling Fang Chen nonstop.
